Learn how to make good porridge, pre-mix it and add some psyllium husk, and you'll always have a filling and incredibly healthy fallback option.
My personal favorite is pumpkin spice linseed gruel. Looks & sounds gross, but it tastes great, is ready in 2 minutes and has perfect macros.
As someone with untreated ADHD, I absolutely don't feel I'm the highest level of control in my brain. I can make all the plans and decisions I want, but I can only gently steer what I ultimately end up doing and paying attention to. My "executive function" wields ultimate power and not only can overrule me, but also prevent me from having the thoughts I want to have.
Another indicator that I'm not the only consciousness in here: anxiety-inducing events like deadlines and exams can give me physiological symptoms even when I've forgotten about them. I'll just be sitting there wondering "why is my stomach upset at me?" and only later realize it's from stress for an upcoming test I hadn't paid attention to.
They've had days to prepare this response. They didn't rescind or explain the one thing that people universally hated, which means they're just stalling and trying to save their reputation without actually changing trajectory.
We've seen this corporate bullshit so much in recent years. No more "benefit of the doubt".
Anyway, to answer the question, if I had some Yorkshire puddings I'd probably go with bananas and soy sauce
I'm no food prude - I've even tried putting cheese in porridge out of curiosity, but seeing one savory flour product added to another makes me feel so unwell.
What's next? Noodle pies? Pancake sandwiches? Bao-filled gyoza? 🤢
Though my lizard brain demands me to be around other people, most of the things that bring me genuine life satisfaction are just easier to do solo. When I'm at purely social events I also get this sense of dread that I could be making better use of my time.
The voice in my head is making contradictory demands, so I've learned to not feel bad for circumventing it. I have my own goals in life, instincts be damned.
I find that listening to people casually talking is usually enough to satisfy the lizard brain, so I listen to a lot of stuff in the background: YouTube video essays, Twitch Just Chatting streamers, etc. When it gets particularly demanding I'll try engaging with the people, but usually I just let my subconscious listen while I'm focusing on more important stuff.
ooo, I love this. It reminds me of how nice C#'s LINQ is...
"Pipeline style" DB queries have some interesting advantages as well:
I still use Google for ~95% of my queries because I like real sources, comprehensive documentation, and not having to read a wall of text when a one-line answer would have sufficed.
ChatGPT is a good replacement for Quora/Stack Exchange for explaining general knowledge stuff like other languages' grammar and simple science, as well as finding authors/books/movies from descriptions when you've forgotten their names.
Bard is... kinda dumb. I gave it a few chances, but it was nothing compared to ChatGPT's free tier.
Some minor/hard-to-notice health-related things can dramatically reduce alcohol tolerance and/or give "hangovers" shortly after starting a session.
For me, inflammation is a big cause. I have (barely noticeable) cat allergies, and (obvious but hard to avoid) food intolerances & gut issues. If I don't stay on top of avoiding triggers, my alcohol tolerance goes from multiple G&Ts giving a nice buzz, to 1-2 sips of G&T giving dizziness and headaches. Electrolyte imbalance can also cause it. I've found I have to add magnesium and potassium salt to my diet, or else I generally feel tired more, and my alcohol tolerance plummets. Once you start controlling these factors, you'll start getting clear feedback from your body when you have too much or too little salt, in the form of water and food tasting different and general feelings of tension or tiredness.
My advice: try antihistamines, easily-digestible meals, and/or sports drinks for a few days before you drink. If those help your tolerance, you probably have some health stuff going on - figure it out and you'll probably find a way to generally feel better.
